  • Vietnam Day 2

    Lateeeee!!~ Feel so bad that the whole bus to Cu Chi Tunnel is waiting for us. *yawn* I'm stonning @_@

       
    Breakfast at the hotel.....

    The tour guide is talking about the condition and history of Cu Chi Tunnel. We're gonna crawl inside the tunnel!!~ (while I'm stonning) How freaking long have I not commando crawl?!? *urghhhh* There goes my elbow and knee. Ooooh no! Should I say there goes my tshirt, jeans and shoe! Ooooh well, my first and last time, just an experience. *yawn* I think I'll just sleep for the 2 hours there.

    It's so embarassing! I'm the only one who sleeps like when the tour guide is talking. Hahahaha! When we reached Cu Chi Tunnel, we were given a video to watch. It's about the history of Cu Chi, the war and whatsoever. It's quite interesting, but my concentration doesn't last long until I feel sleepy again. Hahahaha! =P

    Ok! I'm all sweaty and yucky after I walk like.......... Less than 500m I guess. Hahahaha! Claustrophobic! My perception on Vietnamese - tahan lasak! They are really creative in creating traps and all. *wow* I'm really amazed. Ben, a newly met Singaporean guy in the tour to Cu Chi Tunnel, and Hao decided to try on shooting. Ben had an AK gun while Hao tried on MK16. Serene and I?? ICE CREAM!!!!~ while listening to the noisy gun shot sound. =_="

      Traps.....

      A guy actually manage to get inside the hole

      from USA

    *sweaty & yucky*

    more trapssss.... different kinda traps

    After the tiring Cu Chi Tunnel, we had a more relaxing tour at the War Remnant Museum. It's so sad to read and see the pictures of all the war Vietnam had been through to get their independent. How they were tortured and killed, even after they got their independent, the side effect is still there. How sad is dat......

    Lunch first before visiting the museum...

     

     

      We paid to get in but actually no one check!

      Emo portrait...

      Bombs

      Bullets

    Then, we're back to hotel for a nice shower and wait for Mark's arrival. Skipped dinner as I overslept again but more drinking! ^^ *weeeeee* Danny is so cuteeeeee!!~ Can't wait for him to come over to Malaysia on December. ^^

    Oooooh yeaaaaa..I can't believe I actually danced with the gay couple. Hahahahaha! It's like total random-nessssssss!!~


    The guys..... Mark - Hao - Niko (from Greece)

    The gurl.... Serene & *moi*

    Hao is somewat there already...

    GO....

      GOING.....

      GONE....

    Reached hotel around 4ish. Gonna sleep already as the next day is another early day to Mekong Delta. ^_^

    Luv,

  • Vietnam Day 1

    I actually remembered all this in my blackberry as I don't have roaming nor internet access =_=" Well, I'm blogging through my cellphone now. Copy paste from what I write to this entry, so the alignment might be out.

    Here it goes, Hao's brother send us to KLIA to board the flight to HCM. When reached there, after checking our all Arrived at HCM around 4ish. Hotel sent a pick up for us and we reached hotel for a rest.

    Serene babe & *moi* waiting for departure

    Hao & *moi*

    In the plane waiting for take off

    Reached the airport which i find it kinda quiet

    Top selling products....Hats and helmets...

    Walking to the place we stay

    Reached!


    Isn't as bad as we thought a backpackers place would be. Highly recommended!

     

     
    The view from our balcony....

    Typical us, we can't wait for the awesome-ness we went out to search for food, but to our despair. All is written in vietnamese language that we don't understand. And worst of all it's raining and we're carrying umbrella. Everyone stares at us blankly like we did a criminal offense or something. But we finally found out that it's really against the law to carry umbrella especially when you're riding a bike, but it's ok for pedestrian. However, they are use to wearing a raincoat so it is still weird for people to carry umbrella =_="

    We can't find any local food that we can read in english or maybe chinese, so we ended up having burger in Lotteria =_=" lame I know, but I really don't dare to order food I can't even read! I'm not sure is it a local fast food or something, but it does taste good ^^

    Our first meal cost 324,000 Dong... LOL!

    After dinner, it's the search of bars and clubs. We decided to go Apocalypse Now Bar, and people said it's pretty near, as in walking distance. So, we walked around for like, I can't remember how many hours. The, we decided to take the cab. Hahahaha!

    Go 2 Bar, we're gonna visit the next day when Mark arrived

     
    We visited The Opera House, but it's closed. So, we only take a couple of picciess outside.

    Q Bar..... Another bar we're gonna visit the next day ^_^

     

     
    Walked pass a Chinese restaurant with cool funky Octoberfest huge glass!!~

      And finally, went back to the club.....

     
    Before and After!!

    The club is awesome!!~ not to mention the waiter, Danny is cute. And I met a sweet American guy, whom should I say partially Irish!!!~ *weeeeee* Mei Ping is so gonna like him. Hahahaha! And he speaks a little Spanish! *yey* However, no picciess as it is with Hao and god knows when will he pass it to me..... =___="

    After all the dance and booze, we went to look for more booze in 24-hours-mart. But we can't seems to find, so we just sit by the park and have a long chat. (Total random-ness). Hao already went back to hotel with a GURL!!~ Bahahahahaha! We're so happy for him.

     

    Okies, it's already 5.30am. Time to sleep as tomorrow will be a super early day. *yawn* Sweet dreamz, peepz!

    Luv,

  • Monday Bluessss................

    Ok, like I promised. Another entry of my life. Today was a super super busy day as I only had 2 more days to finish up my audit. And guess what? I'm not left with Money Market Revaluation!!~ *tadaaaa*  In which I haven't even touch on how to do it yet, because it's so difficult I don't plan to learn it . I suckz, I know. Well, at least I finished so others  *two thumbs up*.

    1 more day to go and I'm off to Vietnam with my Serene babe. *booooyeaaaaa* It's our 2nd trip out of Malaysia. I forgot about our trip to Singapore together as our 1st. *awwwwww* I miss Singapore already. Shopping paradise...................................................

    My aunt just signed up for Europe trip with my cousin Sally. And she said she's broke. So, Mei Ping and Mei Anne got to sponsor her trip to Europe when they are not even going!!~ BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!~ How hilarious........ Okok, I'm being mean. But I can't help it!

    Ying Wei and I had been BBM-ing a lot lately. Planning a small gathering with all the CBM gurlz for Jaymyn's birthday . Just a normal dinner, and maybe after that chilling or clubbing, depends on the gurlz. But the most important is Friday or Saturday night? 1 can make it on Friday and another 1 on Saturday . Ishhhh! All I know is Ah Wei and Jaymyn can't wait to party! Hehehehe.......

    After everything that has happened in this year, I'm still feeling lost. Where's the path? The light? Maybe it's the time of the year again, where I isolate myself out and just wanna be with myself, go to work, come back, chill at home. I even feel my bond with my cousins are getting stronger. We talked almost everything, from games to work to relationship. Honestly, we don't do this! To me, the lesser my family knows about me, the better. Less judgement and less nagging. Hahahahaha!  This time, we even planned to hit up to Penang for a short trip together. That's why I'm taking an early leave for Chinese New Year. Gonna go back Penang on Saturday morning, rest for the afternoon, and I'm bringing them for chilling session in Penang island at night for dinner maybe. Gonna go Batu Ferringhi. No alcohol, healthy trip!  You see, everything's so different.

    I miss my baby monster!!~ My mom can't stand him already. He's always finding fault with Lucky. Pity my Lucky boy. Guinness is just like the younger version of Lucky and Cayenne. Why does all my dogs turn out to be like that?!? Guinness is supposed to be the different one, the quiet one. But NOOOOoooooo!!~  Probably I shouldn't over-pampered them too much. But my dad does the same thing too! How come they are scared of him? So unfair. I still miss him. His look will never fial to put a smile on my face. And to everybody out there......YES, nothing, as in NOTHING can compare my love for them, my family. So, don't come and tell me, "I'm worst than how you treat your dog", "Even dogs deserve more attention from you than me.", etc. etc. etc. STOP being LAME, ok!

    My colleague, Khairul came up to department to visit us, and to show of his new haircut. CHEH!  No doubt he's lame and all, but sometimes chatting with the lame him will still makes my day slightly happier, especially in the strict working environment . I can always bully him!!!~ BAHAHAHAHA!!~ That's the fun part. Well, before he explode . I guess I talked to him most after Joyce and Siak Chin left the Company. Talk a lot of crappy stuff, but never once we have serious conversation about work nor any other stuff . And it's better not let my colleague know about my personal life so much. At the mean time, no one in Facebook yet. So, it's cool!

    Anyhoo, it's getting late. Gonna brush up and get to bed while reading on Money Market Revaluation materials. Please, help me! victory

    May I meet someone as cute as Damon and as caring as him too. *weeeeee* I'm in love!!~ kao_kiss

    Buenas Noche! *beso beso* kis

  • Hiatus!!!~

    *booohoooo* what I typed just now is all gone!!~ Now I have to recall what i type. *shootz* and I forgot after i had my dinner. Ooooh yea.... I had iranian bread for dinner. Too much influence from Nancy, my belly dancing instructor .

    Oook, back to topic. Sorry that I'm on hiatus for such a long period. But I think I'll still stay hiatus for some time, mayb until after I come back from VIETNAM!!~ Ho Chih Minh City, here I come!!~ *weeeee*  Ok, I shall blog more often and treat this as my daily journal . First step! So, start from today, forget about the previous stuff that had happened. (because I'm too lazy to upload all the picciess on the parties, events, and short trips ) But I promise I won't be that lazy anymore. It's a new start!

    Back to my life. *hmmmmmmmm* nothing much change, I think. Except more parties and more lazy. HAHAHAHA! Ok, love life - negative. Unless you want to considered wrong turn as something then ok, it's 0 .

    I changed job again. The new environment is ok, except of the strict-ness. YES! NO LATE!!~ And I already gotten my warningssss before I'm even confirmed as a staff . But I'm not really closed to my collegues, maybe not yet. The 2 gurlz that I'm closed with already left the Company, and even so, I'm closer to my cousin and her collegues!

    But now, I'm uberly busy with my audit, as I'm going on leave next week. Need to finish up all my work before I leave. Then, when I come back, I'm going on my 2nd audit!  I hope I don't screwed it up.

    I'm so tired after late night work until 3am yesterday, SATURDAY night!  Yes, I'm at home working, instead of going out. And I rejected all the offers to go out. *sigh* But it's all worth it when I'm in Vietnam.

    Can't wait for my Vietnam trip, and when I'm back, I can't wait to go back Penang to meet with my Melon, Berry and Poney!!~  It's all gonna be Penang, Ipoh, KL, New Year and girlfriends! (except Melon bringing back her Korean bf, so yea, I guy! LOL)

    So, my holidays plans as at I've known now will be :

    17th November 2010 - 20th November 2010 : Vietnam
    28th December 2010 - 2nd January 2011 : Penang
    31st January 2011 - 13th February 2011 : CHINESE NEW YEAR in Penang!!~
    8th May 2011 - 11th May 2011 : Cambodia
    8th July 2011 - 10th July 2011 : Singapore (for Mei Anne's birthday & Dylan, you're so dead! HA! Don't look down on me when I said I'm getting free tickets. So I guess my food + drinks + shopping is on you!)
    6th August 2011 - 8th August 2011 : Bangkok (Thanks Serene babe for this trip as my birthday pressie ^_^)

    That's all I guess. Did I miss anything? End of the year, I'm supposed to go Down Under with my cousin, but she ditched me for a more luxurious trip to London . So, yeaaaaaaa. I'm officially dead broke right now. With or without Aussie trip.

    So, what else did I miss out?? I guess that's all. Tomorrow is a new week, I hope I don't be late anymore. Have to finish up at least 1 section today so I am left with 2 sections for 2 days. *sigh* It sucks big time! Why did I go back to audit? Why do I even like it compare to a normal back office routine accounting work?!?!?

    Guss what?!? My baby monster is living with my parents in Penang right now. They decided to bring him back, I did not push them. And they can't stand their grandson. He's becoming uberly notty, thanks to the over-pampered mummy. HAHAHAHAHA! The last time I went home he can jump up to my king size bed!!~ Imagine for his size!!~  I miss him so so muchie............

    Okies, back to work! Sorry peepz. No picciesss this time. Adios! Oooooh yea.... I finally decided to take up Spanish, with my cousin. ^_^ Mei Anne is taking French, so Mei Ping and I took up Spanish! More updates on it soon. Hasta pronto!
